Alya, Nino, Marinette, and Adrien were fast asleep in the living room of Alya's house. Nino and Alya spooned on the couch as Adrien and Marinette lay surrounded in a nest of blankets on the floor. With the last bit of energy in the room, Nino sleepily grabbed the remote and turned off the tv, executing all sound and light in the room.
Under Adrien's covers, awoke Plagg, hungry as usual. Though the kwami possesed night vision, his eyes squinted as he tried to see past his heavy eyelids. Plagg wandered aimlessly like a zombie, in attempt to find the camembert in Adrien's bag.
Going in the complete wrong direction, he bumped into Marinette's face and fell over. Marinette was too deep in sleep to wake up, she just languidly wiped her nose with her palm and rolled over.
This motion however, awakened the not-so-tired Tikki who emerged from under Marinette's blanket. "Plagg?" she sqeaked in a whisper, "What're you doing here?"
"Where's Adrien's bag?" Plagg groaned.
"Over here," Tikki began to fly the way that Plagg came.
Plagg, complained as he had to fly to try and keep up with Tikki, he was much to tired.
Tikki flew gracefully into Adrien's backpack before everyone in the room suddenly woke up.
Plagg, concerned he'd be sighted, flew to the nearest kwami holder, Marinette. The four friends jerked up as the tv flashed bright colors before switching to an image of an akumatized man.
The man was colored blue and white and had a pilots hat on. "Since I have to wake up so early! So does everyone else in Paris- at least until Captain Laurent shows up to meet his doom!" his voice was demanding but he didn't seem like a villain that would be hard to defeat.
"I have to get home!" Marinette claimed, grabbing her bag.
"Me too!" Adrien lied, also grabbing his bag.
Marinette ran to an alley on the side of Alya's house. She felt the kwami in her shallow pajama pant's pocket. "Tikki? Spots-"
To her surprise a scrappy voice interrupted. A small black kwami flew before her. "Wait, wait, wait," Plagg said, "I don't have time to explain but just say, Plagg claws out."
"What?" Marinette asked, "But how did yo-"
The kwami flew and put his small paw over her lips and shushed her. "Just say it, kid."
Adrien had run the other direction and hid behind a lamppost. Before Adrien could say his usual transformation words, Tikki emerged from his bag and hovered close to his face. "But- but- you're Ladybug's kwami!"
"There's no time to explain!" Tikki piped, "You'll have to capture the akuma Adrien! Say spots on!"
Both heros were confused but didn't hesitate to take action.
"Plagg, claws out!"
"Tikki, spots on!"
